Born and raised in New York City, singer and songw Born and raised in New York City, singer and songwriter Carole King has led a life of musical grace. In her early days, she was once a Queens College student before briefly marrying lyricist Gerry Goffin. Years later in 1971, with over 25 million copies sold worldwide, her album "Tapestry" soared to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 for 5 consecutive weeks (the longest ever by a female solo artist at the time), and in 1973, she gave a free concert in Central Park attracting a crowd of over 100,000 people!

Fun fact: Carole King co-wrote the 1962 hit "The loco-motion".
